Here we go! You want to talk about what President Trump is doing. President Trump is delivering on his domestic agenda and his foreign agenda. The American people voted for President Trump, and it's wrong of the Greens to continue to harp on as they do. This latte set from Balmain have no experience of the real world. They talk about places like Biloela—you wouldn't even know where Biloela is, mate. Have you ever been to Biloela?

This is the problem with the Greens. They govern from textbooks. They govern from the hypocrisy of their own party room. The Greens' party room is where for six years they were an accomplice to Labor's failure to control our borders. What President Trump is doing is a decision for him and is a contested foreign affairs matter. The Senate should not be dealing with this as a notice of motion.
